Like all things in a competitive marketplace, there isn’t a single purchase price for domain names. If you register only the domain name with no associated services, such as web hosting or private registration, you will pay anywhere from $10 – $35 / year.

If you purchase additional services with your domain name, often times you can throw the domain name in for free.

Insider tip:
Search engines look favorably upon domain names that are registered for long-term. So if you are serious about your business and want to improve your chances of ranking higher in search engines, register your domain name for 5 years or longer. You’ll also save a little bit of money when you register for a longer period of time.
